1SAM2.htm 1SAM4.htm3:1 And the child [H5288] Samuel [H8050] ministered [H8334] unto the LORD [H3068] before [H6440] Eli [H5941] . And the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] was precious [H3368] in those days [H3117] ; [there was] no open [H6555] vision [H2377] .
3:2 And it came to pass at that time [H3117] , when Eli [H5941] [was] laid down [H7901] in his place [H4725] , and his eyes [H5869] began [H2490] to wax dim [H3544] , [that] he could [H3201] not see [H7200] ;
3:3 And ere the lamp [H5216] of God [H430] went out [H3518] in the temple [H1964] of the LORD [H3068] , where the ark [H727] of God [H430] [was], and Samuel [H8050] was laid down [H7901] [to sleep];
3:4 That the LORD [H3068] called [H7121] Samuel [H8050] : and he answered [H559] , Here [am] I.
3:5 And he ran [H7323] unto Eli [H5941] , and said [H559] , Here [am] I [H2009] ; for thou calledst [H7121] me. And he said [H559] , I called [H7121] not; lie down [H7901] again [H7725] . And he went [H3212] and lay down [H7901] .
3:6 And the LORD [H3068] called [H7121] yet again [H3254] , Samuel [H8050] . And Samuel [H8050] arose [H6965] and went [H3212] to Eli [H5941] , and said [H559] , Here [am] I; for thou didst call [H7121] me. And he answered [H559] , I called [H7121] not, my son [H1121] ; lie down [H7901] again [H7725] .
3:7 Now Samuel [H8050] did not yet [H2962] know [H3045] the LORD [H3068] , neither was the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] yet revealed [H1540] unto him.(Now: or, Thus did Samuel before he knew the LORD, and before the word of the LORD was revealed unto him)
3:8 And the LORD [H3068] called [H7121] Samuel [H8050] again [H3254] the third time [H7992] . And he arose [H6965] and went [H3212] to Eli [H5941] , and said [H559] , Here [am] I; for thou didst call [H7121] me. And Eli [H5941] perceived [H995] that the LORD [H3068] had called [H7121] the child [H5288] .
3:9 Therefore Eli [H5941] said [H559] unto Samuel [H8050] , Go [H3212] , lie down [H7901] : and it shall be, if he call [H7121] thee, that thou shalt say [H559] , Speak [H1696] , LORD [H3068] ; for thy servant [H5650] heareth [H8085] . So Samuel [H8050] went [H3212] and lay down [H7901] in his place [H4725] .
3:10 And the LORD [H3068] came [H935] , and stood [H3320] , and called [H7121] as at other times [H6471] , Samuel [H8050] , Samuel [H8050] . Then Samuel [H8050] answered [H559] , Speak [H1696] ; for thy servant [H5650] heareth [H8085] .
3:11 And the LORD [H3068] said [H559] to Samuel [H8050] , Behold, I will do [H6213] a thing [H1697] in Israel [H3478] , at which both [H8147] the ears [H241] of every one that heareth [H8085] it shall tingle [H6750] .
3:12 In that day [H3117] I will perform [H6965] against Eli [H5941] all [things] which I have spoken [H1696] concerning [H413] his house [H1004] : when I begin [H2490] , I will also make an end [H3615] .(when: Heb. beginning and ending)
3:13 For I have told [H5046] him that I will judge [H8199] his house [H1004] for [H5704] ever [H5769] for the iniquity [H5771] which he knoweth [H3045] ; because his sons [H1121] made themselves vile [H7043] , and he restrained [H3543] them not.(For I: or, And I will tell him)(vile: or, accursed)(restrained: Heb. frowned not upon them)
3:14 And therefore I have sworn [H7650] unto the house [H1004] of Eli [H5941] , that the iniquity [H5771] of Eli's [H5941] house [H1004] shall not be purged [H3722] with sacrifice [H2077] nor offering [H4503] for [H5704] ever [H5769] .
3:15 And Samuel [H8050] lay [H7901] until the morning [H1242] , and opened [H6605] the doors [H1817] of the house [H1004] of the LORD [H3068] . And Samuel [H8050] feared [H3372] to shew [H5046] Eli [H5941] the vision [H4759] .
3:16 Then Eli [H5941] called [H7121] Samuel [H8050] , and said [H559] , Samuel [H8050] , my son [H1121] . And he answered [H559] , Here [am] I.
3:17 And he said [H559] , What [is] the thing [H1697] that [the LORD] hath said [H1696] unto thee? I pray thee hide [H3582] [it] not from me: God [H430] do so [H6213] to thee, and more also [H3254] , if thou hide [H3582] [any] thing [H1697] from me of all the things [H1697] that he said [H1696] unto thee.(more also: Hebr. so add)(any thing: or, word)
3:18 And Samuel [H8050] told [H5046] him every whit [H1697] , and hid [H3582] nothing from him. And he said [H559] , It [is] the LORD [H3068] : let him do [H6213] what seemeth [H5869] him good [H2896] .(every: Heb. all the things, or, words)
3:19 And Samuel [H8050] grew [H1431] , and the LORD [H3068] was with him, and did let none of his words [H1697] fall [H5307] to the ground [H776] .
3:20 And all Israel [H3478] from Dan [H1835] even to Beersheba [H884] knew [H3045] that Samuel [H8050] [was] established [H539] [to be] a prophet [H5030] of the LORD [H3068] .(established: or, faithful)
3:21 And the LORD [H3068] appeared [H7200] again [H3254] in Shiloh [H7887] : for the LORD [H3068] revealed [H1540] himself to Samuel [H8050] in Shiloh [H7887] by the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] .
